Otto Aviation Standardizes on Galorath's AI-Powered Estimation Platform to Drive Price-to-Win Strategies Across Sustainable Aerospace Initiatives
LONG BEACH, Calif., June 3, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Galorath, the premier AI-powered estimation platform provider for cost, schedule, and risk analysis, today announced that Otto Aviation (Otto) is standardizing on its flagship SEER® platform. Otto will leverage the platform's structured operational intelligence to anticipate costs and streamline production efforts as it works to create the future of sustainable air travel through paradigm-shifting design, performance, and economics.
In the evolving supply chain landscape, Otto will rely heavily on SEER for Manufacturing (SEER-MFG™) and SEER-3D predictive data modules to develop accurate and efficient manufacturing and assembly costs. SEER allows Otto to build parametric estimates and risk profiles by leveraging historical insights, improving planning precision. The Otto team can interact directly with its proprietary and Galorath-sourced historical data. This simplifies WBS generation and unlocks actionable, data-backed insights earlier in the process.
"As we enter the next phase of aircraft development, time-to-market, quality control, and resource accuracy are critical to our success," said Obi K. Ndu, PhD, Chief Information and Digital Officer, Otto Aviation. "Integrating Galorath's SEER platform into workflows ensures we have the right tools to combat economy-driven constraints and focus on cost, outcome predictions, and meeting design requirements, keeping us ahead of the curve with a strategic advantage."
Guided by a team of experienced and accomplished aerospace leaders, Otto is ushering in a new era of transonic super-laminar (TSL) aircraft that is more operationally efficient and environmentally friendly. As Otto approaches design initiatives for customers, the SEER-MFG data module empowers Otto with accurate estimation, predictive analytics, risk analysis tools, labor and resource forecasting, and material and production modeling. As designs evolve, the SEER 3D data module allows Otto to update and refresh estimates by generating detailed costs from any CAD system and evaluating cost-saving alternatives.
"Delivering sustainable flight innovation demands precision, flexibility, and rigorous control. Galorath's AI-powered estimation platform brings structure to that complexity," said Charles Orlando, Chief Strategy Officer at Galorath. "The complexities of navigating quality control issues, new regulations, and persistent supply chain constraints require a sophisticated solution. Galorath's AI-powered estimation platform delivers structured cost, schedule, and risk analysis through a unified environment that scales across Otto team members and designs."
SEER AI-Powered Estimation and Planning
Built on Galorath's trusted SEER modeling framework, the platform combines analytical depth with intuitive access. SEER's core modeling framework is refined over decades of complex program execution that addresses the needs of cost, schedule, labor, risk, should-cost, and price-to-win estimation and analysis for hardware, software, manufacturing, and information technology (IT). The platform's operational intelligence layer, SEERai™, is integrated throughout the experience. It enables natural interaction, embedded guidance, and intelligent automation – reducing cycle time, improving alignment, and unlocking knowledge trapped in documents, processes, and expert memory.
